So is it safe to say that 2008 wasnt the year of the PS3?

looks like the lemmings come out at night to rule the forums lol. but honestly, it was the year of the ps3

Better Games

More sales than 360 (this year)

Home

Good setup for 08

Price cut to look forward too.

yah its been sony except for the npd's in november

it didn't have more sells then the 360 this year. Better games according to GS, but not really imo. Also how is looking forward to a price cut a positive. Especially when it isn't happeing this year. Also sony took the NPD 6 months and MS 5 months. Based on trends MS should take 6 months. So it will be a tie for NPD and MS would have outsold them in the US. ALso if reports are true about MS making a comeback in Europe then MS should have the sales lead WW this year.

better games according to gamespot and gamerankings, "but not really imo" its not just your opinion that counts, its the consensus amoung the reviewers (gamerankings) and ps3 games had better scores on gamerankings than 360 games. NPD predictions don't factor in a potential sales hike for when sony cuts the price in early 09?

You may want to go back and check those game rankings again. 2008 RELEASES(FROM GAMERANKINGS) 360 AAA- 6 AA- 37 A- 46 total A and above 89 PS3 AAA- 5 AA- 33 A- 29 Total A and above 67

I thought we play games not sales. If that is the case then PS3 won 2008 with the most AAAE. jakarai
Where did this rule come from that ONLY exclusives count in "year of system Z" threads? Regardless of what platforms games appears on, total them ALL up for each system and go from there. How would a hypothetical 5 exclusives be better than a hypothetical 4 exclusives and 3 multiplats that can't be played on the first system. Either way I get 7 games to your 5.

Year of Nintendo, just can't deny the sales anymore.MoonMarvel
sales dont make a game, sure you can stare at your wii and not play it because there are no fun games, BUT you can say " it has sold the most, yay!" and look at it and smile,

Oh, you don't wanna use gamerankings, but now you want to compare the "sony family" to the 360? SDF to the rescue I guess.

Definetly not.

Sales = Wii

Critcially acclaimed games = PC

The 360 and PC don't lead either one.

Not technically. Wii and PC win like last year. Honestly the Wii can sell 5 million in one month and not surprise me j/k. Nintendo did a more thatn amazing job with the new direction they have taken the industry. But in the ongoing SW console battle (which is more exciting :P) between PS3 and 360, PS3 won as far as critically acclaimed games.
